Drive provides our dealership with an avenue to make incremental deals that would otherwise be missed through traditional lending programs. With the newest push to capture midrange paper, Drive is once again proving their competitive edge and interest in becoming every dealer’s “relationship lender.” Whether sub-prime or near-prime, Drive representatives are always willing to push hard to make deals.

At Alpine, we rarely miss a deal. That is why having the Drive connection is so important. On average, we make 10 to 15 deals each month with Drive that would have otherwise been missed. While the fees can be substantial, we rarely lose money on these transactions. Instead, we have happy, satisfied customers that spread the word that Alpine can do what other dealers can’t do – get them approved!

With people like Roger Glas, how could Drive fail? From the approval to funding, he is never more than a phone call away! People really do make the difference. Where other representatives are absent, Roger is a hands-on area sales manager. He visits regularly and stays until the problems, whatever they may be, are handled. I truly appreciate such attention to detail. For that, Alpine is proud to be a part of the Drive connection.

Using Drive has been a big advantage for me because I have real people to work with. The system Drive uses is very user-friendly and the buyers and dealer reps are wonderful. I can remember several times a deal where I could not get in touch with my buyer but I was able to reach my rep (Merica) and she was able to get the problem solved immediately. If all the other banks would handle problems as fast and with as much effectiveness as Merica, the world would be a better place. Thanks for always being there when I need you.
